PBP is a mature BASIC compiler for Microchip's PIC microcontrollers. Its licensed user base of 10,000+ is composed mostly of engineers and companies. It is intended to be a professional development tool, though its painless syntax also makes it a favorite among hobbyists and institutions of learning.

PBP generates Assembly language that consists of hand-tuned macros and library routines. This laborious approach in development makes for extreme efficiency in handling operations with a variety of variable types. Each math and comparison operation is generated according to the specific variable types that are used as inputs and output. High-level commands are included as library routines that are reused to minimize code space consumption, and these routines are tuned based on the device's memory characteristics and selected oscillator frequency.
